6" high weighs 750g anyone recognise the style or signature?
Reminds me of the Mats Jonasson floral weights.

Hopefully a better photo of the signature?

Peter Layton founded the London Glassblowing Studio in 1976. This particular pot is actually from his time in the Highlands of Scotland when he set up a small studio in Morar.

The London Glass Blowing Centre is actually a terrific place to see if you are in London for a while. Its not very far from London Bridge tube/Railway station. It's in an old ware house, in a rapidly gentrifying area of South London. You can actually see Glass being blown,and there are work on display for sale by various people. At whopping prices mind you!

It in Bermondsey Street SE1, which also has the Fashion & Textile Museum almost opposite and the White Cube gallery is down the road.

A friend has one of his Monets and Van Gochs. Beautiful

That vase looks good enough to eat Phil, what an absolute beauty.

Those were taken from the window display in the high end upmarket craft gallery Primavera, in Cambridge King Street. Three floors of hand made glass, jewellery and ceramics. Well worth a visit. But if you thinking of buying anything make sure you have a bulging wallet!

I can believe it Phil, pieces like that don't come cheap. Thanks for the heads up, should I ever find myself in that part of the woods I'll be sure to pay a visit.

A cornucopia of Peter Layton with those of with very,very deep pockets. Lovely to look at, so lets just look!

The following images are from are from the Pyramid gallery in York, well worth looking at if you ever are in York. They do some nice studio pottery as well
